@Kilgore - Thank you.
This truly is an incredible archive. The books are in folders that are listed alphabetically by the author's first name. I opened in the Gerald Pollack folder and found the full text of 2 of his books.

. Nice. -
@Kilgore
great resources. -
Very impressive work cyclos17.
This has probably taken hundreds of hours of manual work or the use of some very advanced and heavily customized tools.I downloaded the GIT-Repo just to be sure.
Many of these books have still active copyright. -
@Atman the best part to me is seeing how Peat was interested in almost all fields and disciplines. You feel like you're reading a living library when you see certain texts mentioned by vastly different people.

@Corngold I completely agree. He was an example of a true intellectual, philosopher, scholar or whatever you want to call it. Being well read in wide range of topics is one of the key characteristics of such a person. His aim is to better understand nature and natures does not care about our categorization of phenomena into a miriad of buckets. So if he wants to advance in his endeavor, he must think about all areas of knowledge and their relationship with each other, only temporally focusing on a given subject.
So pretty much the opposite of the typical, modern (career-) "scientist" at universities, who does not even read the papers of the neighboring colleague five doors down the hall, let alone old classic works from other fields. And why should he? It doesn't help him getting his papers accepted and winning grants.
